How to minimise food allergies with hydrolysed nutrition

When your dog has a food allergy, it is almost always a reaction to the protein in his food. To manage this itchy condition, Hill’s has formulated Hill’s™ Prescription Diet™ z/d™ ULTRA with highly hydrolysed protein to minimise the allergic reactions that can affect your dog’s skin, coat and stomach.

Hydrolysation reduces the size of the proteins in your dog’s food to the point that they won’t stimulate the immune system and provoke an allergic reaction. Levels of hydrolysation are measured in units called daltons. The lower the amount, the better for minimising the risk of an adverse reaction. The major part of the hydrolysed protein in Prescription Diet z/d ULTRA, is smaller than 3,000 daltons.
